Commit to telling total truth A relationship involves three essential components. You, your partner and truth. Every time you hold something back from your partner, a piece of your passion dies.

Astound your partner with your generosity Relationships work best when you ask yourself what you can give to your partner, rather than working out what you can get.

Take responsibility for feeling deeply loved. Accept that it’s your job to educate your partner about what makes you feel most loved. Love your partner how they want to be loved, not how you want to be loved.

Make loving each other a priority At some point in day, ideally last thing at night, take time to tell your partner exactly what you loved most about having them in your life.

Walk away when you get nasty Most of us get a little nasty when we feel backed into a corner. Come up with a plan that allows either one of you to walk away from a row when you catch yourselves saying things you’ll regret.

So now, you may be thinking, I’m going to have learn to be an intuitive, empowered employee. It’s hard to keep up with buzz, fad du jour.

However, intuition is no fad. It’s an EQ competency, and EQ matters more to your career success and life happiness than your IQ. And good news is EQ can be developed over your lifetime.

Do you “have” intuition? I’ve never coached anyone who didn’t have some. They just needed to hear it described so they realized they’d always gone on hunches, and gut feelings, and survival instincts, and, yes, even good vibes.

All too often this comes out when we say,”

·I knew …the market was going to fall ·I knew …she wasn’t woman for me ·I knew …he was a crook ·I knew …it would never work out ·I knew …better than to do that

Until you get acquainted with your intuition, that phrase will most often come out as a V-8 afterthought – “I coulda use my intuition!”

Intuition can be defined as knowing about something in “other than cognitive” ways – knowing without knowing how you know.
